Rockies’ German Marquez: “I can be better, no doubt”

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — German Marquez was a first-time all-star last season and nearly threw a no-hitter at Coors Field, where he posted a 3.67 ERA in 18 starts.

“I can be better, no doubt,” Marquez said Tuesday while sunk into a cushy couch in the Salt River Fields clubhouse. “I want to be more consistent the whole season. Sometimes I can be up and down, up and down. I had three or four really bad games, but this year is going to be great.
